Brock Noland updated FLUME-1599:
--------------------------------

    Description: 

1) Error message is bad.

{noformat}
java.io.IOException: Failed to obtain lock for writing to the log. Try 
increasing the log write timeout value or disabling it by setting it to 0. 
[channel=fileChannel]
{noformat}

Setting that timeout to 0 actually disables the wait.

2) The comment below is stale. The direct memory stuff should be removed.
  /**
   * Maximum capacity of the channel. This number needs to be configured
   * in line with -XX:MaxDirectMemorySize. {@link FileChannel}
   * Default: 1,000,000 which will consume 8MB of direct memory
   */

3) The FileChannel javadoc message is wrong as well referencing DirectMemory 
stuff.

  was:
{noformat}
java.io.IOException: Failed to obtain lock for writing to the log. Try 
increasing the log write timeout value or disabling it by setting it to 0. 
[channel=fileChannel]
{noformat}

Setting that timeout to 0 actually disables the wait.
